Businesses have been leaving since 2017 and leadership has done nothing but try to raise taxes. Businesses were being looted long before CHAZ. Lack of accountability has been a staple of WA state and Seattle for a very long time.

You misspelled '1999'. They've been leaving since WTO.

At one point in the early aughts, Seattle was a ghost town.

A few years back an expose was released entitled "Seattle is Dying".

Seattle used to be an important city, but it has been in a state of decay for decades now.

West coast states' cites have been slowly invaded by addicts for years. They take what they want and do as they please with complete support of the city governments.

LA, SF, Portland, Seattle...

This is the army they have been importing for a decade.
